This was very helpful. I purchased a Jobo 1520 UniTank and I am using it for the first time today. I am concerned about getting finger prints on the emulsion side of the film and was trying to watch your finger placement as you advanced the film. It seemed to be on the sides, but in some instances it seemed to be touching the film. Can you speak to that? Would you suggest the use of disposable latex gloves to avoid finger prints at all? Thanks again for this helpful content.
I have never had finger marks on film, but I do wash my hands before I load and try to avoid touching the emulsion as much as possible. I might touch it at the beggining or end but not too much in the middle part, and also if I do I dont press too hard to not mark it.
Just picked up the JOBO reel/tank. It works great for 120, but I cannot seem to get a roll of 36 exposure 35mm to load all the way. It simply won't go past the last 10" or so of the strip. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks for doing this
Thank you!!
Hi, it doesn't have the little ball like in Paterson one ? So if i understand you have to push the film with your thumbs ? That's....

It's almost like AP reels loading process.
Me lo voy a guardar como vídeo de cabecera debido a mi escaso éxito cuando lo intenté 😂
Es todo practica! Pero no seras el primero que no lo consigue facilmente.
I'm having really hard times with loading the Jobo reels Otherwise love the tank and the CPE2
Me too. I have one reel that works and another one that is useless
